ty ch 7 sum


evaluations are not facts. they make judgments about worth on the basis of standards that may be conscious or unconscious. we must learn how to make fair and sound evalutions because they effect your every day life. our minds tend to evaluate situations before we have time to actully look them over. for example when someone is dressed poorly and stinks its easy to classify them as jobless. maybe they just got off work you never know. evaluations are also used in advertising to persuade us. propaganda manipulates public opinions but a critical thinker is able recognize what is taking place and discard it.
